And anyone who might want to comment should feel free to do so. Ads proclaiming, “Why believe in a god? Just be good for goodness' sake,” will appear on Washington, D.C., buses starting next week and running through December. The American Humanist Association unveiled the provocative $40,000 holiday ad campaign Tuesday. “Our reason for doing it during the holidays is there are an awful lot of agnostics, atheists and other types of non-theists who feel a little alone during the holidays because of its association with traditional religion.”
Last month, the British Humanist Association caused a ruckus announcing a similar campaign on London buses with the message: “There's probably no God. Now stop worrying and enjoy your life.” Best-selling books by authors such as Richard Dawkins and Christopher Hitchens have fueled interest in “the new atheism” — a more in-your-face argument against God's existence.

Really, we are much too inbred around here. We need to get out into the fray, as Ig has done instead of waiting for them to come to us. And really, it doesn't take much to get these guys going.
Heh, re: the Second Coming; I just laid It's The End of the World As We Know It on 'em. If any open the link the comments might be interesting.
